Join Megan McCubbin and Chris Packham as they investigate why octopus are punching fish in this latest episode of Amaze Me, the show that explores the newest discoveries in the natural world. It’s an octopus behaviour that’s surprised even the biologists who first filmed it happening in the Red Sea. But the reason behind it could lie in how fish and octopus are joining forces to hunt prey together. Family duo Chris and Meg look into what happens when that underwater teamwork breaks down.
